Creek Critters & Clean Water: Bringing Watersheds to Life in Your Classroom
LIMITED
Wednesday August 12, 2026 1:10pm - 3:20pm EDT
Limited Capacity seats available
Dive into an exciting, hands-on professional learning experience designed to help elementary teachers turn local waterways into living laboratories! In this interactive session, you’ll explore watershed health by investigating the tiny but powerful organisms that call streams home - 24macroinvertebrates. Using leaf packs as your sampling tool, you’ll discover how these “creek critters” act as natural clues to water quality. Get ready to sort, identify, and interpret what these organisms reveal about ecosystem health. Along the way, you’ll gain fun, student-friendly strategies to bring inquiry, outdoor learning, and environmental stewardship into your classroom. Whether you’re near a stream or working indoors, you’ll leave with adaptable, engaging activities that spark curiosity and connect students to the natural world. Come prepared to think like a scientist—and maybe get a little muddy!
